karl rove being one of them are having to answer a lot of questions today. and i do think that a lot of these donors while seems like $5 million is a lot of money to us, it's really, really a small investment for them so for some of the folks this is a vote with their money on behalf of who they thought they wanted to win and the ideological donors giving money but i think also a lot of donors who had hopes of seeing greater returns and they're probably going to think carefully of where they put their money next i'm. >> $6 billion, it's a lot. thank you for coming on. >> my pleasure. >> former congresswoman giffords. we have now learned jared lee loughner, this murderer, is sentenced by a judge in tucson to life without parole. casey wian was inside the courtroom and joins me live. casey, what was it like in there? >> reporter: brooke, it was very, very tense inside that courtroom. jared loughner walked in to the courtroom. we have seen many pictures of him with the head shaved, his hair has grown now and a much different looking young man than we have been

rove was another person who had really urged the party to embrace some short of comprehensive immigration reform. it went nowhere and it became a flash point. let's not try to pretend that this has just been something that was ignored. this was a real flash point, it was something that the conservative base gets very riled up about, and it is something that played a big part in the primary, and really alienated. gregg: like the spanking at the polls on tuesday. whenever you get the spanking you kind of straighten up and reconsider your behavior. tony, americans are very compassionate and have a great sense of fairness. they understand that more than a million americans came here as children of illegals through no fault of their own. isn't it time for your party to engage in a full-throated endorsement of the d.r.e.a.m. act or something similar being crafted by rubio? >> exactly i think senator rube kwroeu is the kind of leader who is taking a very reasonable step, extending legal status to children who were brought to this country, through no fault of their own, through their parents comi

karl rove and the republican party said, look, how can we build turnout in states like ohio. i know, we'll put a referenda against same sex marriage on the ballot, so that will generate a lot of anger and hostility and turnout against same sex marriage. that doesn't work anymore. even after president obama declared his support for same sex marriage, mitt romney didn't make an issue out of it, the republicans didn't make an issue out of it. it just illustrates how quickly the tide appears to have turned in terms of how the public feels about same sex marriage. >> as you point out, the margin is small, but the tide is turning. when you talk to opponents, let me quote the maryland marriage alliance, such a radical change in the definition of marriage will produce a host of societal conflicts that government exercising its enormous enforcement powers will have to resolve. jeff toobin, where does this go next, to the federal government, potentially to the supreme court? >> well, the supreme court has two possible cases this term, one, the constitutionality of the defense of marria

finally, karl rove's reputation will take a significant hit. i saw him on tv the night of the election at 2:00 in the morning. his excuse was in every swing state, we have decreased obama's margin. i am sure he said, put up these millions of dollars and we can still win, but we will decrease his pardons. not much of a relief. let's hope -- i do not think crossroads will be as much of a player two years from now. i think his reputation took a hit. i am ready for questions. >> let me pick up on what you were saying about the impact. does it cause you to reassess the possible damage or the impact of citizens' united? >> i was thinking, what is my greatest supplies in the election? -- surprise in the election? what i say here is i am hopeful it has paved the way for some reform. i think republicans saw it as a mixed blessing. sometimes, the super pacs are not doing what people want them to do, such as backing richard murdock. maybe we can get some reform. having said that, the influence of money is still pernicious, bad, and i would hope that refor
